Oh snap. I forgot I signed up for that.Bubba1 wrote:
The paddock and NICOfest tent are not close to each other. The course/paddock are on the northern edge of the property. Since you're autocrossing, I assume you'll want to park in the paddock, so I already have your name on the list, but if there's anything additional you need or want, Greg would be 'da man to speak with...
Yo you da man gnik... I was gonna bring my xbox but the GF veto'd that (not to mention she can play Viva Pinata while I'm gone). So it's just gonna be me and my car. Just let me know which hotel you're at and how much I owe you. I'll be at the track and the Paddock pretty much the whole time with short spurrts to go wander the swap meet area and the NICOfest tent. The rest of the show is pretty much not my thing, I don't really like trailer queens and hoochies in tiny clothes don't do it for me...gniknave wrote:You're not sleeping in your car.

I'm staying at the Holiday Inn down the street from Hotel Carlisle, I believe it's on Harrisburg Pike. I'll be headed to town Friday, will probably be there by 12 or 1 in the afternoon. Just hit me up on my cell Friday to meet up with me & Wes. (317)956-7548 I'll email you the details about the hotel pretty soon here.Chaotic_Warlord wrote:

Yeah so if I'm more turned on by the size of a turbo or a hot car more than an import model in a tiny bikini does that make me gay? I'm going for the cars and the track time, not the itty bitty bikini's and dental floss covering some girl's medically enhanced rack.
Anyone have details on what exactly is going down with the after party Sat. night and if it costs anything to get in. I hope they do door prizes, I'd love to walk out of there with some go fast goodies for my car.
Oh and I'm watching the weather forecast like it's my job. They are calling for sunshine and 69 for Friday.
Well,if you said you preferred to look surgically enhanced men in dental floss bikini's over car stuff, then your sexuality might be questioned. But otherwise, no big deal . For the record, I think the bikini contest is late in the day after the track stuff stops, so it's possible to view bothChaotic_Warlord wrote:

There is no additional charge for doing the event beyond the admission charge to the Carlisle Performance and Style show. You just have to ask me to add you to the participant list, which I'll be happy to do. There will be no last second walk-ins allowed. And participating on just Sunday is fine.evilrps13 wrote:so if you show up on sunday you won't be able to pay at the gate for this? i'll be coming back from d1 with my car right past the event. but i'm not sure how many tires i'll have left etc... if there is a way for me to show up sunday and pay i could maybe make this event.
You're on the list. And yes, Sunday by itself is cheaper. There's a link to the event elsewhere in this thread that lists the admission costs.evilrps13 wrote:i would like you to put me on the list if you could for drifting on sunday. my name is john wagner and i drift a 1993 240sx. i will make the event if i still have $, tires and a car left after d1. is it cheaper for admission for just sunday?
By chance are you going to be running at all or are just going to be master of ceremonies the whole time?Bubba1 wrote:Well,if you said you preferred to look surgically enhanced men in dental floss bikini's over car stuff, then your sexuality might be questioned.

AZhitman might have more info about the after party at the Hotel Carlisle. I've been concentrating on just the autocross/drift portion of the weekend....
I'm planning to bring the Z and my helmet, so I might sneak in an autocross run or two. But I suspect I'll be working throughout.Chaotic_Warlord wrote:

I am in the process of replacing the power steering pump on my car today and to my knowledge that was the only leak I had and it wasn't even all that significant. I just hope I pass tech because I have been dreaming of the track time since this thread started.
Less than a week to go, still could use some volunteer slots filled.....Bubba1 wrote:

If it's snell M95 or higher then you'll be fine. Just make sure the sticker or label is still on it.hvp014 wrote:hey I have a motorcycle helmet (a full face design) used for quading and a "brain" bucket helmet used for motorcycles. Are any of these acceptable as a helmet. Their both Snell and DOT approved, but I don't know if their approved for car driving.
Let me know whats up.
I appreciate that, Greg...AZhitman wrote:Joel, I'll try to pitch in where / when I can.....
gniknave is exactly right. Check the inside of the helmet for that SA or M rating sticker. If the Snell rating is M95 or SA95 (or newer) you're good to go. A DOT rating by itself won't be useable. Helmets without any sticker can't get used.hvp014 wrote:hey I have a motorcycle helmet (a full face design) used for quading and a "brain" bucket helmet used for motorcycles.

I'll leave your name on the participant list. in case you feel up for doing more than spectating. Good luck.Nick240sx wrote:

Man! i am really NOT looking forward to this.
Yes you can absolutely both drift and autocross. There's no separate lists, you can do as many runs of either as you wish.kas14slider wrote:Hey Bubba, I got a quick helmet question. Is the helmet ok as long as it has a DOT tag inside? I have used this helmet at many drift events and was just wondering if this will be good for carlisle. Here is a pick of the tag:
I also wanted to ask about doing Auto X. Can you also do auto x on top of drifting? And do you have to be on a separate list for auto x?
